We're thrilled to announce that we'll be working with Region Västmanland for the upcoming two years, with a focus on innovation, research and education within the healthcare sector. Together, we'll be diving into establishing platforms for cross-disciplinary collaboration, prototyping, and creativity to boost innovation in the region.
"We chose to work with Another Tomorrow because of their vast experience of transformation processes with a focus on prototyping. We want to find solutions that can be tested at an early stage and implemented in order to future-proof our organisation."
- Victoria Bodén, Innovation Strategist at Region Västmanland

290 participants. 48 teams. 48 Utopian Objects.
Yesterday was a big day for Another Tomorrow. We finally ran Utopia Lab, a hackathon where youth and decision makers come together to solve some of our biggest challenges, creating Utopian Objects and Visions that will have the chance to be realised and tested in Helsingborg's city.
The challenges are centered around some of today’s most pertinent topics such as the environment and sustainability, mental health, democracy and participation, meaningful leisure time and discrimination.
Check out Utopia Lab on Instagram and learn more about the 48 prototypes for a Utopian future!

> Updates from the European Parliament
Last Wednesday, key climate legislation failed to pass the European Parliament. The final report by lead lawmaker Peter Liese on the expansion and revision of the Emissions Trading System received 340 votes against, 265 in favour and 34 abstentions by MEPs (Members of European Parliament). This legislation has been viewed as a key part of European Commission’s Fit for 55 (EU’s target of reducing net greenhouse emissions by 55% by 2030) climate legislation package, causing a commotion in plenary when the outcome was announced.
This means that the European Parliament is likely to adopt an approach that will achieve a 63% cut in emissions, which is lower than the Environment Committee’s proposed 67% cut but an increase from the Commission’s 61% reduction. With such an approach, it is likely that there will be a slower reduction of carbon credits in the market, with 70 million removed in 2024 and 50 million in 2026 instead of the Commission’s proposed 117 million in 2024.
On a more positive note, the European Parliament voted last Wednesday to mandate that all new car and van sales should be zero emissions from 2035 onwards as part of the push towards cleaning up road transport. This is a key component of the Fit for 55 package and rules that carmakers should cut fleet-wide emission averages by 100% from 2035, with interim steps taken in 2025 and 2030.
